OS OUTDOOR SHOW NEC March 14-16

Should be an interesting show with plenty of good kit on offer. Will hopefully be travelling by bike to save on the £10 parking last time we went in the car and parked at the Bike musuem and walked across the roundabout.

didnt even know it was on, they usually (the NEC) mail me a "whats on" but havent this year yet.

good tip about the carparking, alternatively you can take a disabled relative with a blue badge (even if the inconsiderate buggers dont want to go, sit em down at the coffee shop and pick em up on the way out)(that'll teach mum not to moan i dont take her anywhere) and park in the disabled parking right near the doors.

blue badge

please dont abuse the system of the blue badge for the disabled because people less fortunate than ourselves like my father really need these places!

I just got some free tickets from waterstones book shop! I didn't even have to buy anything. Get your illiterate butts down there, ask if you don't see them on the counter. I think they're from OS maps as they're a sponsor of the show. Even if you have to buy an OS map it's a good deal.

I have decided not to do shows any more, I just wait for the mattcbf600 show review.

Watch the show » Journey To Russia

It has made me an arm chair show goer
